Louis Latour and Stonewell
Dinner at Morton's.
1995 Louis Latour Gevrey-Chambertin - a bit too warm, but OK. Typical Gevrey, classic Burgundian nose of mushrooms, black olives, cassis, acidity undertstandably high. It was OK but obviously not well-liked.
1993 Peter Lehmann Shiraz Stonewell - brought 3 bottles of this to clear out some inventory. It's drinking pretty well now. Nice nose of caramel, coffee mixed with berries, tobacco smoke. Medium to full bodied, with round tannins. We did not decant it at the restaurant and did not breath the wine much, but it was OK. It's not spectacular, but not a bad wine to keep around.
